romance and murder go so well together

[capyper]

[ If the colorful posters from Tuesday weren't enough, Yato has redoubled his efforts for today and slapped these up all over the place:



We are admittedly not entirely sure what the heck the catgirl is there for, but she's there. Anyway, in the dining hall this evening, Aqua and Yato have set things up for a group dinner!! All the food is being put on one table; the rest of the room is for mingling and is colorfully decorated in a way that suggests that Yato went wild in the art room at some point and decided what we all really need in our lives is more color and more glitter!!

There's also this piece of paper with everybody's names on it in pairs, and sets of questions (red tab at the bottom of the spreadsheet). That's right, your mystery game is speed-dating and Yato is here to be your cupid for the evening!! ]

I still don't see why not. You should enjoy life while you've got it.

[ You are a bright spot on a cloudy day, Sigrun, Jesus. ]

It's not happening. [ He's so far in the closet, he skipped Narnia entirely. ] I asked him if he liked that guy, and he just said that everyone did.

[captainobnoxious]

[She knows.]

Huh. [...] So you need to figure out how to get him to admit he thinks guys are attractive first.

[penduli]

[ ... ??? ]

How did you get to that conclusion?

[captainobnoxious]

If he admits that, then you have a better chance, don't you?

[penduli]

No, I don't?

[captainobnoxious]

Why not.

[penduli]

He probably won't find me attractive. [ ...why is he having this whispery conversation, why is this a thing that's actually happening. ]

[captainobnoxious]

You don't get to decide how people see you, kitten. For all you know he could think you're super adorable, or he will once he gets from under the rock he's under. And then you can woo him and date him.

[like she's an Expert at dating]

[penduli]

[ Oh my god. ]

Do you even know what dating is? [ she like, wants to win speed dating, so??? ]

[captainobnoxious]

Of course! You talk to the person you like, you give them gifts, and you hang out with them pretty much all the time. Or want to.

[captainobnoxious]

[wait]

[captainobnoxious]

...

...

...

I think I have a boyfriend.

[penduli]

[ ......... ]

Here? Who? [ ............ ] Con...gratulations?

[captainobnoxious]

Yeah. Huh.

[...]

It's Mettaton?

[like. she's not sure? it's mettaton, maybe?]

[penduli]

[ ......... Him??? ]

Really?

[captainobnoxious]

Yup.

[penduli]

[ Wow. ]

Explain the chain of events that led to this.

[captainobnoxious]

I like hanging out with him, which is fine. I like talking to him, which is also fine. I want to know a lot about him and troll hunt with him and show him the world since this is like the biggest gathering of humans he's ever seen before, which is also fine, I think?

[no that might be the point of This Is Where It Begins]

I think the most telling thing is that I actively look for things that he'd like and get them for him? Or make for him. I've been painting a lot recently and they're all for him, basically, since he's never seen the sunrise or sunset. Or stars. Not real ones, anyway. And he calls me cute. And I think he's pretty.

[penduli]

[ Oh my god, Sigrun likes the robot. ]

I... don't know if I'd say you're dating, but you do seem-- I mean, I guess you could be, since that all sounds sort of romantic in a way? [ Um.




Um. ] ...well, congratulations, Miss Sigrun. You have more luck than I do. [ with


with the robot. ]

[captainobnoxious]

[listen

listen it's with A ROBOT.]

Thanks? Do you think he knows? Or do I just tell him.

[penduli]

[ it's really incredible

that

Sigrun is an adult that's more an adult than him, and yet, she needs an adult. ]

Well, if you didn't know, then I doubt he does? [ ...but uh. ] You should ask first. Don't assume things.

[ like you just did with this entire conversation ]

[captainobnoxious]

I guess I will.

[It'd be bad just to assume things, she guess.]

Thanks Black. I wouldn't never figured this out without your issues with getting the guy you like to like you back!

[penduli]

[ WHY DO YOU HAVE TO BRING IT BACK UP ]

You're... welcome, Miss Sigrun. Really.

[captainobnoxious]

And if you ever need anything from me at all, doesn't hesitate to ask. As an experienced dater, I'll give you all the inside tips.
